Abstract: In the field of nonlinear integrable systems, the investigation of the multi-component extensions of these systems is of great significance. In this paper, we present a novel method for constructing multi-component integrable hierarchies, with the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) case used as an illustration. Based on a specific spectral problem, we propose a three-component generalized KdV hierarchy by applying the zero-curvature equation. Note that in the first system of this hierarchy, one of the equations is u t = 1 32 ( p + q + 2 u ) x x x − 3 16 ( p + q + 2 u ) ( p x + q x + 2 u x ) + w 21 , x , where w 21 = w 21 ( p , q , u , p x , q x , u x , ⋯ ) is an arbitrary function. Upon choosing a specific function, this system reduces to the KdV equation.
